Anybody else starting to suspect that spez might have committed a teeny tiny bit of investor fraud?

I just visited reddit for the first time in a week and it feels gross 😝

Did anybody else lose the ability to report? I guess that's why I got a week ban for "report abuse" even though the linked report was agreed with and actioned by Reddit, they're starting to take down anyone flagging the Christoterroism shit since Spez has allied up with Musk.

When a tree dies, it dies slowly. The heart of it rots, and then the roots stop growing, and only much later do the branches stop growing new green leaves. By the time the whole trunk falls over, there've been raccoons burrowing into the rotten heartwood for years.

This week’s rebellion is a response to part of Reddit’s plan to succeed as a business

Not a hint of bias in this article, is there?

Does this dude even use reddit? The proper response on reddit to users not agreeing with mods is to start their own sub to fill the void. That's what happened with r/animetitties. But guess what - no one is doing that because we all don't want to see these changes. Sorry to vent more about this loser, but c'mon man.

Go ahead dude, I'm done with reddit.

If I can't win I'll make my own rules...Jesus guy just admit you were wrong.

Side note, did anyone see how /r/Pics handled this after they opened back up because it was beautiful. Around 2300 users voted to open /r/Pics again and 37k users voted to keep protesting in their own special way.

Is anyone else really entertained at this point by watching this pompus asshat's arrogance single-handledly dismantling the pretty solid reputation Reddit has as a social media platform? It's like I blink and he thinks "hmm, how can I say something worse to show everyone how strong and powerful I am?"

I mean if Reddit's going to go down, may as well go down in the most spectacular self-emulation possible. Solid alternatives are already formed and off to the races. Go off my guy.

Really hoping the hardcore people are here now. Fuck *eddit.

Who?

He could be saying this to appease investors. Meh he can go right ahead. Done with Reddit and the ad spam.

K, thx bye. So long and thanks for all the fish

A lot of mods already opened back up. Reddit wont have to do nothin the way things are going

“I would like subreddits to be able to be businesses if they choose,” he said, adding that’s “another conversation, but I think that’s the next frontier of Reddit.”

How ominous. This was an interview excerpt, so I have no way of verifiably knowing what Huffman looked like as he said this... but I'm fairly confident that he must have been rubbing his hands together and salivating as his pupils slowly morphed into dollar signs.

the irony of a goddamned CEO calling unpaid volunteers "landed gentry"
